Carbon Trading

ICE daily CER price consolidated another Eurocent to 0.88 EURO (+1.15%).  With constant new ERU and CER supply hitting everyday, the market remains significantly long.  Participants seem to be pinning their hopes on supply constraint decisions which could take a long time to materialize.  We are now 4 trading days from the Kyoto Protocol conference in Doha, and it seems we're witnessing some optimism prior to the inevitable post-conference disappointment.
